Well y’all, this is the one where I talk about the Psych Ward. I want to make sure it’s clear that I truly believe that all of the staff were doing the best they could. I’ve been asked by many of you to post a video about this, and I feel like I’m finally ready. Sending love and hugs and all that jazz.
Thank you so much for watching!

in being open about my struggles on facebook and twitter, I've found that people are very receptive to openness and in general the humanity in them comes out in the best of ways when they see someone being so vulnerable, raw, open, and real. It's almost like they recognize the privilege that it is for another person to profess such a personal issue on such an open platform. And I recognize the privilege of the warm reception of everyone else. Humanity recognizes humanity. People are great, like you said, And it's so great to know that we are not lost as a society. Sorry you had such a harrowing experience, but glad you made it through to the other side, able to talk about it, thank you for being so open, and hope you're able to continue to heal from the pain it caused. I have so much PTSD related to hospitalizations and mental health related encounters, but it does get easier over time. Having good people in your life makes all the difference and I'm so glad you have them. Keep on kicking ass.

So brave. You’re not alone, this happened to me too 10 years ago. I still have PTSD from the prednisone too. Thank you for posting, it made me feel better affirming that it is the prednisone that did this.

I had steroid induced psychosis and it was the worst experience of my life. It lasted 10 days. I probably should have been admitted but thankfully my family heard my plea that I didn’t want to be admitted and they took care of me. I saw bugs everywhere, demonic entities, heard voices, etc. thanks for sharing your story.

Induced Brain Damage. Metabolic steroids thin your brain vesels and shrink your brain Fat. Though all most the entire brain is nothing but Fat with Comunicating signals being tortured by Man made Hormones wich are mostly Poison to not just the Brain but all Organs. 2 years of this induced phsychosses is simply throwing a human in a torture Chamber and excusing there agonizing Existence. Should be locked up for the most wicked abuse any one can do to a human.

Not blaming the doctors or nurses but you would think a psych ward would be educated on how to help patients. This video was hard for me to watch because it’s so disturbing to me. I’ll have to watch the other psychosis videos that you’ve posted but I’m curious to know how this came about. That being said, listen, you’ve been through so much in your life. You’re an absolutely beautiful human being. Never be embarrassed to tell your story (As you said with your latest video - yes I’ve been binge watching your channel lol). It’s amazing how much you’ve gone through and what you handle on a day to day basis - and you’re still here! You’re a rockstar. I hope you continue to mess up like we all do but get back on your feet and learn and grow. 😊

I was in the same position before I asked my family to take me to the hospital as I started to get very painful headaches. I was only on Prednisone 20mg for my severe allergy towards dust mites. I was told to take it only for 3 days by a doctor when the rashes occur which I did. I was on it for 2 weeks for the first time in my life and during this time i was also under a lot of stress due to being bullied in a work place. On the first day I went into the hospital I was told I could not leave the hospital and tried to run out. I was sanctioned/involuntary. I was injected with olanzapine and lithium full syringe doses. I only weight 63 kilos. Before going in the hospital I thought i was connecting with god. I sat with my sister and looked at a rainbow I asked her how many colours she could see, she said 4 colours and i could see 13. Everytime I woke up I thought it was years later and people were looking for me: this happened before going in the hospital. It started 2 days before entering. While I was in hospital and being injected I did not respond when spoken to, I stopped eating, showering and showed no facial expression for 4-5 days: I dont recall using a toilet (no toilet mistakes) or drinking water. I only have 2 vague memories of those days where I was able to see: It was a voice of someone I knew and smell of food which pulled me back but I just walked away and fell back into a dark hole. I was drawing things I don't remember drawing. I drew my beach and homestead of the Island my family is from. I remember looking up and I was drawn back and gained all my senses which I had control. After taking control of myself. I told myself not to fall asleep straight after an injection as I thought it was that which caused the catastrophic episode. I was mistreated very poorly by staffs. I was discharged as drug induced psychosis. The psychiatrists x3 and a duel diagnostic tried to find a diagnosis and do scans on me and could not come forward with anything. I was told not to take Prednisone ever again. I have recently put in an application for my records. I was told some Doctors asked my family to do an electic shock on my brain during the first 5 days: My sister said no straight away. Memories can trigger us. I'm glad the drawing triggered me to remember who I am and not an electric shock. Thank you for sharing your story you are very brave. I know it was scary and I'm glad you pulled through. I'm only young I have picked myself up with the right support.

Thank you for sharing. I know that wasn't easy but in a way it is a gift to understand what people are going through that experience this kind of break from reality. It probably didn't feel like a gift at the time but often that is the way it is. High dose steroids are tough.

ITS BRAIN DAMAGE . Do your research it also will eventaully make your Imunne System organs attack them selves and eventually giving a patient nothing but a agonizing painful Death . the worse horrible thing to happen to a person i would not wish on my worse enemy. the FDA for the past 50 years never Approved Metabolic or anabolic Steroids.WHY Because they have way to many complaints and death acused .

I wish my daughter could be in a good mental health facility instead of being treated like a criminal, and everyone turning their backs on her. She is beyond impossible to deal with abd I just wish someone could help her

Thank you for sharing this. Doctors should warn people when they give steroid. My child also had a similar experience caused by steroid given by this stupid ENT doctor.
